You're a nutter riding without mirrors in London, but I have to admit it looks cool. Look forward to meeting to you .

I just ride at 5mph on the extreme left or right of the road & use pedestrian crossings to make my turns !!

Let me see, I’ve got to remove exhaust, drain all the fluids, remove the tank, airbox, throttle linkage, clutch cable, throttle bodies, rocker cover, cams, side engine cover & head, then replace the head gasket, refit all the above.

After that I’ve got to replace the loom, fix some electrical connections, diagnose a couple of electrical shorts to earth, change the fairing and forks, refit the bodywork, and write a new mapping to fit the modified configuration and test.

If all goes without issue then it’s conceivable I’ll be there, but if not then I’ll be working over the weekend and see you all at AR06.

Cheer Mark.

One half of the country cousins will be there (I'll be asking for a bit of bike sitting while I try and meet up with my daughter, as she is staying in London this week)

Toadie, get your backside and the bike there

Worth mentioning, I feel.

Tonight is the Quarter final match of the World Cup between... Italy and some other team.

It doesn't matter who Italy play, THE in place to watch the Azurri in London is Bar Italia. Bar Italia is in Frith Street and opposite where we usually park.

Now I don't know this for sure, but my prediction is:
It will be rammed solid with people. There may also be excessive plod presence and they might not (???) tolerate the bikes depending on how many supporters turn up. I will probably turn up but might park on Soho Square and walk down to watch the footie.

Oh and its V the Ukraine, by the way.
